WPSDDC Info Vault

Documentation

The WPSDDC Info Vault WordPress Plugin is designed for shared editorial notes and checklists. It helps editors save team notes beside editable WordPress content. This is useful for keeping editorial information next to each post. Notes remain separate from public SEO metadata.

Detailed Behavior

Keep a shared editorial note and a small checklist next to each piece of content. Choose which public content types use Editorial Info; all types start disabled.

• Write a plain-text note of up to 10,000 characters.
• Create up to 20 checklist items, mark them complete, and reorder or remove them.
• See completion and saved-note summaries in native content lists.
• Open the record from a native panel in the Classic or Block Editor.
• Share each record with the people who can edit that content.
• Save editorial information independently from content updates and autosaves.

The interface uses native WordPress controls and follows your admin color scheme. No custom scripts, styles, external services, telemetry or frontend output are added. No other WPSDDC plugin is required. Active collection plugins share one WPSDDC administration menu.
